Set in the heart of Monticello on nearly a full acre, this 1900 farmhouse pairs original character with real updates--an updated kitchen, an updated bath, refinished original hardwood floors, and an original tin ceiling in the kitchen. A pellet stove keeps the living room warm and heating costs low. Four bedrooms are upstairs, plus a flexible front parlor downstairs that works as a 5th bedroom, game room, home office, or sitting room. A working wood shop above the garage offers space for projects, hobbies, or storage. Step outside to a large L-shaped front and side porch--perfect for morning coffee or an evening wind-down. The yard offers room to roam: two raspberry patches, an established vegetable and herb garden in the back, a partially fenced area next to the garage for a dog, and a fire pit tucked near birch trees (built for stargazing)--plus still more room to grow or play. Walk to the town store, post office, and gas--all the daily essentials are within reach. Houlton is about 20 minutes south, Presque Isle about 45 minutes north, and Caribou about an hour away--close enough to everything Aroostook County offers, yet quiet enough to be a true small-town home. A well-loved home, carefully maintained, ready for its next chapter.
